shows over. im fucking speechless review and pics tomorrow. okay, I just realized that I will never be able to write a proper review right now, because I am sooo tired. but OMG it was amazing, and all the coldplayers that I met were so nice, and let me just say THANK YOU to Christa for letting me eat like half of her pretzels because all I ate this morning was a bagel and if it weren't for those pretzels, I definitely would have passed out. Show comments: "i know guy is very handsome but be carefull with him" CM. "will champion. the member of cp most likely to star in a horror film." CM. "guy. the member of cp most likely to star in a porno film." CM. [thanks cold_love23]

 

Just got home from my first ever Coldplay show and my mind is blown! It was better than any video I've watched or picture I've seen and I can't believe it's over already...now I can see why everyone wants a new and longer setlist, this one just flew by! Chris' voice in person was amazing and the boys in general played perfectly and were filled with energy. The crowd as well was amazing with everone on their feet the entire time and (at least in my section) everyone was dancing and singing an having a great time. Hghlights were lost, lij, vlv, I'm a believer sing-a-long, and surprisingly in my place. The only thing I didn't like/understand was the dragon bit which was quick and pointless, but besides that this show was everything I hoped for and more. : ) [thanks yeahhright]

 

i thought life in technicolor was made about 50 times more epic by the sparkler torches they had...i need to get me one of those. it goes without saying that the show was EPIC, and the guys definitely noticed us . i saw guy reading our various signs at the beginning. he didn't have a ton of reaction for the most part and actually seemed a bit frightened by us, but he did give a big smirk at christa's PHIL IS HOT sign! and chris...he saw our sign early on, read it, and then went "OH ! !" very obviously . guy started to appreciate us more in our corner once he realized we were hardcore fans that new every note and every word and weren't just drunks or whatever. i would wave at him compulsively every time he looked down at us, and once he gave me (or my general direction, which included sarah, christa, and pris) a big smile. other than that, he grinned a lot at us and smirked . i think noelia or someone said they thought jonny winked at us at the end, but i missed it if it happened. [thanks ApproximatelyInfinite]

 

FANFUCKNG TASTIC! WILL GUY CHRIS all smiled & saw our signs. Oh same setlist. Sarah got a balloon! [thanks CookyMnstr]
